Description of the problem	While going at slow road speeds,on a city street, it threw a rod with no warning. There is only 54,000 miles on the car, we hadn't even had a chance to take it in for the recall software correction, since they just recently notified us of that. We had no warning signs, and the oil has been changed regularly, the last time being just a few weeks, before this incident. Given the number of complaints i have found, some involving vehicles with as low as 4,000 miles on them, and the lack of support from hyundai, i do not think they are fully looking into the dangers of this issue, and that they are not taking it seriously. If we had been going faster, when it happened, it would have caused a very serious accident, since the car just shut down with no warning, and all we heard was some sudden noise. The car is currently with hyundai of renton/carpros. So far, they have refused to accept these occurrences as being related to the recall issue from high pressure weakening the rods, and have refused to help people with warranty replacements. We can provide more information, and oil change documentation, and etc., upon request.
